Romeo may not even have his 4th year option picked up. And spending a FRP to free up nearly 25M is worth it to me.
He'd have to break both of his legs and basically not play between now and whenever they have to pick up his option I think.
He cant stay healthy. If he comes back and looks rough it would not shock me in the slightest if we declined his option.
I think that would be pretty shocking.
He is a recent lottery pick. I think a team that like the c's that needs movable assets would just pick up the option and hope, after all his fourth year is 5.6 million, not picking it up and replacing him with a minimum guy saves you only like 3.5 million odd dollars. So its not like there's a huge opportunity cost. The front office, by all accounts, loves the guy.
I think he would have to look pretty much unplayable not to have his option picked up, like worse than he looked in glimpses last year.
